This 2-ingredient Cream Biscuits recipe turns out biscuits that are fluffy and tender, delightfully flaky, and oh so yummy. It's a quick and easy homemade biscuit recipe that's perfect for beginners and experts alike!

Ingredients

1¾ cups White Lily Enriched Bleached Self-Rising Flour
1 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons salted butter melted (optional...but highly recommended!)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 500°F.
Place flour in a large bowl. With a large wooden spoon, gradually stir in cream to form a sticky dough. Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and fold twice gently to form a ball. Do not knead.
Gently pat dough to a generous ½'' thickness. Cut with a floured 2½'' biscuit cutter, leaving as little dough between cuts as possible. Gather the remaining dough and pat again to a generous ½" thickness. You should get 8 biscuits with a 2½'' biscuit cutter. Discard scraps. - - - Alternatively, pat the biscuit dough into a rectangle or square shape and then cut the dough into rectangles/squares. I like to use a pastry bench scraper, and cut straight down and up. This eliminates scraps and rerolling the dough - super duper easy + no waste!
Place biscuits on a parchment-lined baking sheet, about 2'' apart. Generously brush tops with melted butter. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until tops are golden brown.

Notes

Biscuits adapted from White Lily Cream Biscuits recipe, which I made with them at the Southern Baking Retreat in Nashville.
